Absolutely beautiful work. I always remembered those cars from my youth. That JPS paint scheme was perfect. Your work is unbelievably clean. Thanks for sharing.

Holy crap, that's beautiful . Did you win the competition (I'm assuming you entered a competition from the photos...)? Very clean and professional build.

These bases + cover look great too, they really fit to these great models. How did you make the base?

Superb finish on both the Lotus and the Tyrrell. The finished models on those bases look terrific!
